  • Eskdale – A series of easy paths and bridleways to make this walk as short or as long as you like by using the narrow gague trains on the Ravenglass and Esdale railway.
  • Burnmoor Tarn and Mitredale – This medium grade walk explores refreshingly remote land on the extensive western shoulder of Scafell.
  • Illgill Head and Whin Rigg – A hard walk which bags the two summits at the top of the Wastwater screes.  Although a full day walk, the route can be shortened by starting at different points.
  • Great Gable from Wasdale Head – Another hard walk is a full traverse of one of the Lake District’smost iconic peaks.

Look out for Jennings pubs along the walks and enjoy a pint of Cumberland Ale – you’re never far away from a well-deserved glass of Jennings beer!

Before setting off on any of these walks please plot the route on an appropriate map: OS Landranger 89, OS Landranger 96, OS Explorer Active OL6

Jennings Ale Trails – Long Distance walks sponsored by Jennings Brewery, explore some great days out in the Lake District and Cumbria. With routes to suit all abilities, you will be sure to take in some great scenery, good food and real ale.
